Potterton Ignition Transformer EBI 052F0030

The Ignition Transformer EBI 052F0030 is a Potterton Commercial ignition component used in the burner control sequence of Paramount gas boilers. It generates the high-voltage spark that lights the gas at the burner during a call for heat. This part is listed under Potterton Commercial spares with the manufacturer part reference 991209.

• The boiler attempts to fire but no spark is produced at the burner.
• Repeated lockouts on ignition failure during a call for heat.
• Audible arcing or a weak, intermittent spark at the electrode.
• Visible damage, cracking, swelling or burning to the transformer body or its leads.
• Ignition works intermittently, with the boiler firing on some attempts and locking out on others.

• Confirm the appliance model and kW rating against the fits list above.
• Check the existing transformer for the part reference 991209 or the code 052F0030.
• Inspect the ignition leads, electrode and its gap before replacing the transformer, as faults there can mimic transformer failure.
• Isolate the electrical supply and follow the manufacturer's wiring and safety instructions when fitting.
